Skyhunter66 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 That's fab - I was thinking of doing this one with the 1:32 Tonka I bought last year. The pink looks spot on - what's your secret for thinning the paint as I've never had much luck with Xtracrylix? Chris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheStig Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Thanks again for the kind comments. John & Snitok - I would not recommend this kit for a beginner, watch out for the flaps (i got lucky and noticed the mistake in the instructions before the glue had set) and the side of the intakes needs a bit of filler but apart from that, its a lovely kit! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich G Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Lovely build of a superb new kit, I think you've got the weathering spot on! Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiton Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 wow !! Fantastic. I love open flaps !! ,-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shan Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 WOW, good job. Did the Kit come with a proper APU vent or was that scratch built, the ones i tried came with a black decal which i later found out that it was actually a vent for the APU, The flaps look great 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Very nice build, looks like a true war machine. Have you pulled the wings forwards to get the 25 angle?, good job on the wing seals. Shaun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheStig Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Shan - the kit has the apu vent built in which is good work from revell! Shaun, Many thanks for the wings seals!! And yes i used General Melchetts guide to make the wings at the correct angle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpc7676 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Real nice. How was the general build experience? Fit in particular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStig Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 Kev, certainly not a build for beginner, but overall it was a nice build, no major problems with fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feifeitim Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Love this model Stig! Awesome work! Flew the real machine a couple of time after GW1 on its return to Laarbruch. You've certainly captured the look brilliantly! Well done! Can never have too many models of the Tornado, particularly when they are of such exquisite detail like yours and dr_gn! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabat Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 That's a great build of this Tornado, looks very realistic indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
